Vegetarian dishes aren’t always as inexpensive as I’d like them to be. I’ve nearly fainted in the produce aisle over the price of out-of-season bell peppers or a head of radicchio. With this Greek-inspired vegetable casserole, I wanted to build something delicious out of the most ordinary possible grocery store veggies: potatoes, onions, green beans, canned tomatoes, and zucchini. The one-pot dish is a great way to put all those things together in a no-fuss recipe. Cheese, in this case feta, goes a long way to punctuate the dish, but if you’re avoiding all animal products, you could top it with some nicely salted roasted almonds instead. All in all, it will cost you about $17.50 with rice and salad. –Sara Dickerman
